<p>A cladding-pumped fiber structure is disclosed in which mode mixing of pump light injected into the fiber is induced by index modulation. In one embodiment, the index modulation is created by a stress-inducing region disposed in the cladding which simultaneously maintains the polarization within the core to produce a polarization-maintaining fiber useful for multi-mode and laser applications. <IMAGE> <IMAGE></p> |
